FAQs

Are these trainers suitable for sports or running?

No, the adidas Originals Japan trainers are designed for casual, everyday wear and lifestyle purposes. They are not built with the specific support or cushioning required for performance sports or running.

How do I clean the white leather upper?

For routine cleaning, gently wipe the leather with a soft, damp cloth. For tougher stains, use a mild leather cleaner or a sneaker cleaning solution applied with a soft cloth. Always test the cleaner on an inconspicuous area first.

What is the best way to care for the suede lining?

Use a specialized suede brush to remove dirt and restore the nap. For specific marks, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid using water or liquid cleaners directly on suede as it can cause staining.

Is the 'aged midsole' a defect?

No, the aged midsole is an intentional design feature that reaffirms the vintage charm of the 1964 silhouette. It is part of the aesthetic, giving the shoe a retro, worn-in look from the start.

What does the `IH3659` or `JQ2552` code mean?

These are product identification numbers, often referred to as MPNs (Manufacturer Product Numbers). They help distinguish specific models or batches of the product.

Can I wear these trainers in rainy weather?

While the leather upper offers some resistance, these trainers are not fully waterproof. Prolonged exposure to heavy rain is not recommended, especially for the suede elements. Applying a water and stain repellent spray designed for leather and suede can offer additional protection.

Troubleshooting

White leather appears dirty or stained.

Use a specialized white leather cleaner and a soft cloth to gently wipe away dirt. For deeper stains, a sneaker cleaning solution designed for leather may be effective. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.

Suede inner lining looks matted or dusty.

Use a dedicated suede brush to gently brush the nap of the suede, lifting dirt and restoring its texture. For stubborn marks, a suede eraser can be used.

Gold foil branding appears dull or scratched.

Avoid using harsh chemicals or abrasive brushes directly on the gold foil. Gently wipe the area with a soft, damp cloth. To prevent future damage, use protective sprays designed for delicate materials.

Slight discomfort during initial wear.

Like most new footwear, these trainers may require a short 'break-in' period. Wear them for shorter durations initially to allow the materials to conform to your foot.

Midsole appears discolored or excessively worn.

The midsole is designed with an 'aged' aesthetic. For cleaning, use mild soap and water with a soft brush. Avoid harsh cleaning agents or abrasive tools that could alter its intended vintage look.

Care

Maintaining the pristine look of your white leather and suede adidas Japan trainers requires regular and gentle care:

  1. General Cleaning: For the leather upper, wipe down regularly with a soft, damp cloth to remove surface dirt. For deeper cleaning, use a dedicated leather cleaner and conditioner to keep the leather supple and prevent cracking.
  2. Suede Areas: Use a specialized suede brush to gently remove dust and dirt from the suede lining and any suede accents. For stubborn marks, a suede eraser can be effective. Avoid using water or harsh chemicals on suede.
  3. Spot Treatment: For minor scuffs or marks on the white leather, a mild leather cleaner or a sneaker cleaning solution can be applied with a soft cloth. Always test on an inconspicuous area first.
  4. Protecting the Gold Foil: Be gentle around the 'adidas JAPAN' gold foil wordmark. Avoid abrasive cleaners or brushes that could scratch or fade the print.
  5. Aged Midsole: Clean the aged rubber midsole with a soft brush and mild soap and water. Avoid harsh abrasives to preserve its intended vintage appearance.
  6. Storage: Store your trainers in a cool, dry place away from direct sunlight to prevent discoloration or material degradation. Consider using shoe trees to help maintain their shape.
  7. Water Protection: While not explicitly waterproof, applying a leather and suede protector spray can help repel water and stains, especially beneficial for white footwear.
